Lyric

Last night’s liquor lingers

In the cold light of the dawn

Same old stupid way of drinking

Like there’s nothing going wrong

Said a little more than I should

Put that look on someone’s face

I won’t drink like that again

I whisper to this empty place

Yeah, I know it isn’t pretty

And my body can’t keep up

But somewhere in the mess last night

I know I really laughed

I won’t drink like that again

That’s what every morning says

I already know the ending

Still, I lose when night begins

When the good times win

That’s all it takes

Once again, I let myself

Forget the price I’ll pay

I’m not saying I’m addicted

But I know which way this goes

Living right along the edge

Sounds better than the truth

Will I wake up in the morning?

Will I make it into work?

I worry with a drunken mind

Then empty one more glass

I won’t drink like that again

Some nights I almost mean it

I already know my limit

Still, I lose myself within it

When the good times win

For one more night

I leave tomorrow’s version of me

Somewhere far behind

If I don’t wake up

Then what the hell?

If I disappear for one whole day

The world still turns without me

But this body that I’m breaking

Is the only one I’ve got

And for the first time

That thought scares me

I won’t drink like that again

I swear into the cold

Maybe I could treat myself

A little better than before

Let the good times win

I don’t mind

I just want enough of me left

To make it home tonight

I won’t drink like that again

Just make it home tonight
